My boss is a dick and wants end of month totals to be good. Fuckstick made me come in all week with only a half day off for Thanksgiving. '16 year end sucked and I guess he is happy that doesn't seem to be the case for '17.

Who else is working today, and thru the weekend?

Woke up Thanksgiving morning with a sore throat too. At least it isn't getting worse.

4 day weekend.

Got home Wednesday around noon. Kept getting calls so I "worked" a little until 4pm or so.

Got a few calls yesterday ... and today.

I am in the office for a bit trying to figure out why my emails have stopped coming in.... again.

Need to connect a thermostat to a tankless water heater my guys put in a few weeks ago. That's easy peazy, and close by. Then off to the Depot to pick up electrical supplies for my garage addition. That's the weekend project.

Worked Turkey day waiting for some cross country non English speaking stick up his ass trucker to deliver a 2017 Jeep Wrangler from Florida to show and it was shipped open and all F’ed up, spent about 3 hours dealing his 1/2 English speaking boss who was about 3/4 of the way into a bottle of something. The most unprofessional guys I’ve ever dealt with. Working the rest of the weekend and next weekend to Havasu for the parade.

Shop is closed and crews are home. My crew guys get upset if they don’t get Thanksgiving off. As it’s hunting season in St. Louis and Texas. Everyone is back at it on Monday and crew stay out 4 weeks till Christmas.

being self employed sucks, sometimes.
The IRS suspected a fishing boat owner wasn't paying proper wages to his deck hand and sent an agent to investigate him.

IRS AUDITOR: "I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them".

Boat Owner: "Well, there's Clarence, my deckhand, he's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $1,000 a week plus free room and board. Then there's the mentally challenged guy. He works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of Bacardi rum and a dozen Budweisers every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also gets to sleep with my wife occasionally".

IRS AUDITOR: "That's the guy I want to talk to - the mentally challenged one".

Boat Owner: "That would be me. What would you like to know"?

If your boss didn't dick off all year posing shit on RDP you wouldn't need to work so hard at years end. :p

The nice thing about self-employment is you get to set your own hours and only have to work 1/2 days any time you like.
Friday is a perfect example.

It's a saying my friend, but I am sure you knew that. Last year the phone stopped ringing after Halloween and didn't ring again until mid Jan, it wasnobueno.

Nothing to do otherwise.
